Manager, Sustainability

Environmental Sustainability of Factories

• Ensure factory operations comply with local environmental laws, regulations, and international standards (e.g., ISO 14001, Higg Index, ZDHC, buyer/brand compliance requirements).
• Solar project establishment.
• Monitor and manage emissions, effluent treatment, waste management, and water usage across factories.
• Prepare and maintain environmental performance data, sustainability reports, and dashboards for management and buyers/stakeholders.
• Lead or support sustainability certifications and audits (e.g., LEED, Higg FEM, WRAP, buyer sustainability audits).
• Conduct training and awareness programs for factory staff on energy conservation and environmental best practices.

Heat Generation & Thermal Energy Management

• Monitor fuel consumption (gas, coal, biomass) associated with heat generation and identify measures to reduce wastage and emissions.
• Implement and monitor waste heat recovery systems to reuse thermal energy within factory processes.
• Work with production and utility teams to optimize steam and hot air/hot water distribution and minimize losses.

Reporting & Coordination

• Prepare periodic reports (energy, environmental, sustainability KPIs) for senior management and relevant certification bodies/buyers.
• Coordinate with factory heads, maintenance, production, and procurement teams to implement sustainability initiatives.
• Stay updated on emerging sustainability technologies, regulations, and industry best practices, and recommend adoption where relevant.

Electricity Consumption & Energy Management

• Monitor, analyze, and report electricity consumption patterns across all factory units.
• Identify energy-saving opportunities and implement energy efficiency measures.
• Set up and maintain energy monitoring systems/metering (sub-metering, SCADA/BMS) to track consumption by section, machine, and process.
• Conduct periodic energy audits and prepare energy-saving action plans with cost-benefit analysis.
• Explore and evaluate renewable/alternative energy solutions for factory operations.
